When I call nonmem with a new dataset I created, I get the following
message
forrtl: severe (64): input conversion error, unit 2, file c:\temp\fdata
and then the program crashes. It never gets to the first iteration.
I get a partial listing with the following being the last line:
0FORMAT FOR DATA:
(E7.0,E10.0,E3.0,E5.0,E7.0,E2.0,E5.0,2E2.0,E9.0,E7.0,2E6.0,5E9.0)
Does anyone know what this error means and how to correct it?
thanks,
pete bonate

input conversion error
Pete,
do you have the data file open in another program at the same time (like
Excel)? also, open your data in something like notepad and take a good
look at it. look for odd characters or other unusual stuff.

Dear person of the year,
That is a Fortran error, not a NONMEM error message. I'm guessing
the you get an executable (nonmem.exe) (as well as FDATA, FCON, FSTREAM
etc), and as soon as it is launched it crashes, when it first tried to
read
FDATA. Might want to try the executable from the command line (just
type nonmem.exe - make sure that FCON, FDATA, FRECORDS and FSTREAM are
still present. Everything in the format is E format, so it seems
likely that it isn't overflow/underflow, and NMTRAN should have caught
any illegal characters (text, tabs). All I can suggest is that you try
to find the offending record in the data set (the NRECORDS option should
help). Hopefully we'll hear from Alison (isn't it great to have her
back?)

Yes, that's correct. It will say can't find data file.
I think the real issue, is something in the data file itself.

Bill,
I think that typically NMTRAN will generate an error for that (not
fortran), either can't find data file or INPUT FILE : I/O error at
record 1. It think this is coming from NONMEM reading FDATA, which is
surprising, usually NMTRAN is really really good at finding errors in
the data set, and will only write legal data sets. If it makes it past
NMTRAN, it has a legal (if not correct) data set.

Peter and nmusers:
If I had the $INPUT and $DATA records and the complete data set, and
could reproduce the error,
I would try subsets of the data file. Would the crash (in Fortran I/O
routines) happen
if only the first record was present (NRECS=1)? If that was ok, I'd try
the first 100, first 200, etc.
It could be that there is something wrong in only one record.
Peter, if this approach does not help, feel free to send me the above
and I'll take a look.
